Back in 2015 while at a well attended Chapter Dinner with some friends who knew I was gonna be there up on Afton Mtn at the lower gate for The Skyline Drive ([I]in the Shenandoah National Park[/I]) ... on my 62nd .... birthday started a vicious rumor that the price of the "U S National Parks Senior Pass" was going up to like $50 as well as the age to 65 .... I know, it was a really vicious trick. I first figured it was a joke, but when the CD's wife chimed in, I admit I got worried. I had been talking about it since I was in my 40s ... $10.00 for a lifetime pass.
Well, earlier this year I turned 62 and while a snow storm kept me off Afton Mountain on my birthday, I was up there within a couple days and got my $10 life time Senior Pass to all National Parks. I later gave my still current ([I]exp August[/I]) regular year pass to the CD's wife ..... they got some use out of it and I had only signed one line so all they had to do was sign the other.
Well ....[B] it's NO JOKE now!
[/B]I see a story today that it actually is going to go up soon ....from $10 currently all the way to $80 ....so if you are 62 and haven't already gotten yours ...what are you waiting for?
You can do it in person at $10 or on line or USPS for $20.
